bullied and harrased...

i got into an accident today.
with a motorcycle.
and it was not my fault!

i was at a cross-junction, waiting for the light to turn green.
i was on the left lane, wanting to go straight.
when the light DID turn green, of course i moved forward.
suddenly, this motorcyclist came rushing up and tried to cut me off from the right.

HELLO!? of course i will hit him!
and he went under.
he got up looking all dazed.
i was relieved that he didn't die or anything (though that would be IMPOSSIBLE seeing as i just started moving forward. so i could only have gone at 10km/h).
the worst thing was, he started screaming and shouting at me!
"Get out of the car! You better get out of the car!"
ok, i am not that stupid. i didn't get out.

but he had this murderous look on his face.
he was dressed in a raggedy t-shirt and shorts.
he looked like kalimuthu (not that i know how kalimuthu looks like. but i would imagine, he looked like that).

he asked me to pay him RM50 for the damages that HE caused.
And guess what...i paid him.
Because I was scared sh*tless. i panicked.
even though, if you look at my drawing, there was a police station just a few meters away.

dumb, huh?

so, what i COULD have done:
  1. argue with him --> which could potentially get me killed, cause i don't know if he had a knife in his shorts or something
  2. go to the police station --> which i didn't because i panicked. and i needed to get to work.
  3. give him RM10 instead of RM50 and just claim that was all i have --> THIS one i didn't do just out of sheer panic and dumbness.

the damage?

  1. traumatised at the fact that there are people out there who are evil and would take advantage of others.
  2. my bumper came out a bit.

i feel very sad that there are people like that outside there. i know he took the opportunity, seeing that i was a woman driver. and i was alone. but that was just evil.

stupid a**.

as for the RM50...the Chinese says, "small investment to ward off other evil". yups.

i had to be responsible over my life, as i am going to get married.
